be unwieldy, to say the least and perhaps a waste of their time, the information the weather office provides is conveyed to them electronically by some means. but let me say one thing here. there's nobody who is saying the airline, the regulator, the weather bureau there or anybody looking at those weather reports, including myself, no one would say they shouldn't have taken off. there was no reason not to fly that flight. the bad weather was about 300 miles away and the decision on how to deal with it was a decision that would be made in real time. that's what we should be focusing on. what was going on in the cockpit, decisions made at that time, the request to deviate, whether that request was responded to in a timely way or not, the captain has the responsibility to stay out of the weather. so the weather forecast you get on the ground is a decision go or no-go. and no one is saying they shouldn't have gone.
